same-sex marriage

Some countries have started to legally accept same-sex marriage from 2001. Now there are 10 countries have the law of accepting same-sex marriage in their countries. Some state jurisdictions accept same-sex marriage in the U.S. and Mexico. This enables same-sex couples to be married just like the other couples. However, for those who think the marriage should be between woman and man suggest that they should use different status of marriage such as partnership and civil union. Those are unequal to marriage but they make it possible for same-sex couples to officially register and have the limited legal rights that marriage couples have. This works in more than 20 countries and performed in many states in the U.S.. In the present, many people think that prohibition of same-sex marriage relates to the discrimination against homosexuals so many countries are considering on protecting those couples by the law.
